Congrats all you Swedes

[Celtik Militia]

Just listen to what those quebec people call french. FRENCH!!?

i didnt get that
are you implying that the quebec people don't speak french really? are you in position to judge on that?
well they do have a weird accent and extreemly weird expressions/words that arent used at all in france, but the language is french as much as american english is english.

*FREE QUEBEC!*

Yeah canadian french is totally impossible for even my father who speaks french fluently to understand. To me, it sounds like a completely different language. But it's not as funny to listen to as a couple of african dudes having a conversation in french.

Oh, and Free Scania! Support Skånepartiet!

Yeah, speaking of accents... You crack me up. More of that.

Uncle H:OK,in the roster here on TV they had him down as Åke - your version makes more sense, though! But in the case of Berg, it's really friggin hard to tell what his name is supposed to be, cuz they called him Akki. It still cracks me up. Makes it sound like Hakki Hamburger, like they're chopping him up. I'm so used to it by now that I can't do much but laugh. Anyhow, Thomas told me some announcers had come to him and asked how to pronounce the names. I think that's nice. Shows you take pride in your job.

Edited - OK, the roster says Aki. My mistake to assume it was Åki!

Celtic: The Quebecois speak French alright, but the accent is very much like the difference between Cockney brittish and someone from South Central LA. It's to the point where the UN actually employs (or at least employed) interpreters for when the Parisienne and the Quebequois had to converse. I learned Parisienne French (not very much of it, though), and I have an easier time understanding Quebecois, but my French is useless when my kids gets French homework, as they then gets points taken of for pronouncing things incorrectly...

Hey... Tack så mycket

 

[Celtik Militia]

heh yeah i know what quebecoi sounds like and i know its very different to "proper" parisian french lol. i have a hard time understanding them too but the language stays french. the worst though is probably (as TheLastWithPaganBlood said) african french. i mean the accent of the french speaking countries in africa. one of my nieces who's american learnt french by living one year in Senegal (Africa) and she then spoke french to me with that african accent. it was hilarious. especially cause she's norwegian looking cause of our grandparent's origins, so that was doubly hilarious. also portuguese accent in french is fucking hard to understand. in paris all building caretakers are portuguese women, so i've had the opportunity to hear quite a lot of that!

Free Brittany! Brann, Heol Telwen! (i figured i had to put in some celtic language here lol, and the only words i know in Breton are "crow" and "the dark sun" ^^)

I one ran into this guy in Stockholm who was black and dressed all like M Jackson was in the 80's, all in glitter, white glove and flood pants and all (don't ask, it was two in the morning on a Sat night...). I guess he needed directions, but holy shit was I ever taken aback when he started speaking in Danish!! Total mindfuck.

Anyhow, does anyone know what the injury to Sami Salo is? (Hey Celtic, how'd you like that for a last name?) Nobody here seems to know, but we miss him on the team.../T

I went to Stockholm over the summer. one of the first things I saw was a man in leather shorts and a tutu being lead around on a leash. True Story.

 

[Celtik Militia]

hehe

and yeah "Salo" is quite a last name. that guy's lucky he wasnt a kid in france, he'd be mocked at by everyone lol

PS: for those who dont know, "salaud" in french is pronounce the same as "salo" and it means someone who's a real bitch/bastard/asshole/fucker... something in that vein.

 

[Feraliminal Lycanthropizer]

but is it as good as MALPT?

 

[Stygian Sins]

I'm guessing that'd either be a stag or a student initiation.

Stygian: Damn I'm glad my husband doesn't play in that league! It' bad enough in the beer league he's in...uke:

 

[Celtik Militia]

nice fight lol, what teams are playing? and which color is which?

 

[Anglorfin]

Nothing quite as hilarious as a bench-clearing fight.

Here's another good one. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=530669738883951656&q=hockey+fights

 

[TheLastWithPaganBlood]

This is a hell of good one too. I let it speak for itself:

[Infernium]

Salo actually means "The Wild" or something in Finnish hehe. It was a shame the Finns lost him before the final, he was one of the only big players to keep up with bigger swedes and undoubly the best Finnish shooter... Finns got unlucky.

 

[Stygian Sins]

nice links guys!

i enjoyed thoes!

There's always my husband's favourite name in the NHL: Satan (supposedly that's not how it's pronounced, and it's the NHL, so I have no idea how you really say it cuz the announcers make a mess of all names...anyhow, it's how it's spelled).

Inferniumo you know what the injury to Salo is then?? I still don't know...there's another game tomorrow, and we miss him.

 

[Stygian Sins]

ya isnt satan on the czech team? or was it slovakia?

 

[Infernium]

Inferniumo you know what the injury to Salo is then?? I still don't know...there's another game tomorrow, and we miss him.

The news say it's a "shoulder injury" but nothing about how long he will be out of ice. When it happened after the Russia game they only said he wont playing in the olympics anymore.

NHL announcers say "Shit-tan" I'm not sure of that's more correct for his nationality.
